Keep God as Your Compass
When we lose our sense of direction we can become confused and disoriented on our journey, especially without a compass. How in God’s creation did Columbus journey to America? He must have had a compass along with facing many storms in the ocean. God’s Word has been my compass and giving me the direction in…
Balance is Essential
Being balanced usually keeps us in line or at least moving straight ahead at an even pace. Have you ever drove really fast in your car only to find the steering shot, the car or truck vibrating and wobbling like some carnival ride? You realize the front end alignment is out of whack and it…
Christ Jesus our Atonement.
“For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you on the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood by reason of the life that makes atonement.’ ”Leviticus 17:11 NASB Christ has become our Atonement once and for All. It happened at the…

Only the Work of God’s Spirit can Quench and Fill Your Thirst.
Hunger and thirst are two necessities that we need to survive along with oxygen and air. I went to the beach yesterday and the sun was hot. My body soon became thirsty often filling up with water and San Pellogrino seltzer. Without the water I would become thirsty, irritable, and tired. There was an old…
